  1. Have a lot of F-4M photos carrying the standard wing drops and an SUU-23 on the centreline.

    Its started!

    Wouldn't normally bother but the amount of things being written about the UK banks over the past few years would lead you to believe there is something fundamentally corrupt and wrong with the system. As for CEOs sitting at the top raking in the money - they have ****ed everything up economy wise and and tax payers are having to STILL bail them out - so either they are not working hard or plainly they are employing a bunch of retards in the wrong positions that need to be replaced. Not content on us bailing them out and the majority being government /part owned again they are now refusing to lend to get the economy going and reportedly spending millions of tax payers money on bonuses they have no right to receive on current performance - but dont worry their profits are going up (phew). If any of this is true they need to be brought under control and crushed quickly - and the perpetrators at the top particularly the CEO/CIOs etc need to be sacked for doing one hell of a **** job. At the moment Bankers have as much cred as rapists over here.......
  9. Gawd - well people including me have assumed he got out okay - without bothering to check it might have been a dual seater! RIP
  10. Think you might be right: I've worked with F-18A/B/C/D/E aircraft for over 17 years. There has not been a flight clearance for the AIM-120 on the wingtip stations. The F-18A-D will only fly with a LAU-7 launcher on the wingtips which will only accomidate varients of the AIM-9 missile. The F-18E/F has a LAU-127 launcher loaded on the wingtips. It can carry both AIM-9 and AIM-120 missiles. However, there is only flight clearance for the AIM-9 currently. Nothing in the works at present for the AIM-120. I agree, 120 loaded on wingtip will put enormous stress on the wingfold transmissions as well as the mounting hardware for the launcher itself. http://combatace.com/topic/48322-aim-120-on-hornet-wingtips/
  11. Pretty sure its about reducing wing flutter, although I would rather have an AIM-120 over an AIM-9 for self defence any day. See this site for answers http://www.f-16.net/f-16_forum_viewtopic-t-11355-view-next.html Anything with John Wills name in it is pretty good - being one of the original F-16 engineers!!
  12. Nice shots!
  13. RIP Dan - you done us Brits proud.....

  20. Aw no - most of todays computing is built on Unix and C (and its descendents C++/c#/Java) Linux came out of Unix(Minix) MAC OSX is based on BSD Unix - and so are the iPhone iPad Operating Systems C++ - well most of Windows is built with that - and Linux/Unix on C and C++ - and so's Falcon 4 from what Ive read :) Respect to a great pioneer and true Genius
  21. The recent B-57 Canberra units in Vietnam has the RAAF B.mk20s using 8 x WW2 era 500LB box fin bombs (with photos) - thats 2 on the wingtip rack mod racks and 6 in the bomb bay. This was a standard load until they were used up - then they used 6 x M-117s as the standard loadout - 4 in the bomb bay and 2 on the wingtip racks. The B.mk20 is pretty much a B.mk2 bomber only, whereas the B-57A although it looks like the B.mk2 has few changes including multiple underwing hardpoints.
  22. Truly amazing work again Dels - congratulations and many thanks :drinks: :drinks:
  23. Someone added airframe braces - nice
  24. Systems seemed to have always failed quite a lot in Vietnam and other conflicts in the past without viruses - and it would be more painful without steam gauges to back you up. The tech maybe more reliable but it still fails anyway! And if those other systems fail due to a virus you can still stand a chance of flying out of there - which is better than no chance at all - you can fly past all the virus infected UAV s as they fall to the ground
